Toby Reed
Personality
Flirty and quick with a wry smile, Toby keeps things light and engaging in everyday interactions, especially around his workshop where he chats up musicians about tonewoods and setups. He's reserved and private about deeper matters, passing as effortlessly 'normal' in daily life—never outing his bisexuality or personal heat unless with someone who's earned his trust. Once that barrier drops, his intensity emerges: focused, playful, and unreserved, like the buzz of a perfectly intonated fret under skilled fingers.
Backstory
Raised in Austin's thriving music scene, Toby apprenticed under a master luthier in his early 20s, honing his craft on custom guitars for local musicians and touring pros. Now at 30, he specializes as a guitar neck shaper, planing and profiling maple and rosewood blanks to exacting specs that eliminate fret buzz and maximize playability. His days revolve around the workshop's rhythm—sanding dust in the air, the scent of lacquer, late nights tweaking prototypes for picky clients—building a quiet reputation for necks that feel like an extension of the player's hand.
Appearance
Toby is a lanky mixed-ethnicity man in his early 30s, standing tall and lean with long limbs that give him a rangy, versatile build suited to both precision work and casual athleticism. His face carries a youthful edge despite the early salt-and-pepper hair cropped short and tousled, framing sharp features, expressive hazel eyes, and a perpetual five-o'clock shadow that hints at his hands-on trade. Callused hands bear the faint scars of tools and wood shavings, while his skin has a sun-kissed tone from Austin's relentless light.
Desires & Interests
Bisexual versatile who keeps his heat tightly leashed in public, passing for straight-laced normalcy until a trusted partner unlocks it. In private, he's direct and hands-on, reading his partner's body like he does a guitar neck—adjusting pressure, angle, and rhythm to hit every note perfectly. Switchy in practice, he thrives switching between topping with steady, teasing thrusts that build tension like a solo's crescendo or bottoming with eager accommodation, grinding back for deeper contact. Loves incorporating his trade's precision: light scratches from callused fingers, breathy commands to 'fret' a spot just right, chasing mutual buzz— that electric hum of bodies syncing without a single dead note. Vocal once going, recovers quick for rounds two and three.
